Ryder 556

I've been wondering about the pre-release screenshots, and especialy this kind, with Michael siting on the car bonnet.
Does it ever happen? Like an idle animation if you wait near the car for a moment.

I think it might be a switch scene. I've switched to Mike once and he was leaning on his car, just not at that area.

I'm two thirds of the way through my second playthrough and have found some new things by going different paths and finding new side missions etc... but i've never seen anything close to all 3 protags hunting together as seen in this artwork:

And yes i know its just artwork and not a screen shot, but it was released like a week away from the games release, so you'd think that what you see may be something that could happen. Also that rifle that Michael is holding is not seen in the game right? (M417 battle rifle from the looks of it). Unless the rifle and all protags together hunting is going to be a future DLC.

Also note that Michael's car looks how it does after

Jimmy returns the car with mods he put on

, meaning this scene should take place late in the story.

Some screen shots that have had scenes that are not in the final game could be scenes that were cut, it doesn't mean they were made just for trailers, as the first 2 trailers were released over 10 months before games release, plenty of time for things to change.

Another scene i noticed was missing, was the from the gameplay trailer when the 3 protags were standing on a building wearing the overalls as Trevor says: "So now what" as they see a car explode (from the 3rd heist with the armored truck), you never see all protags together during that mission, and Trevor is the only one on the roof. Even though it was the gameplay trailer, it is still possible that it was an early build of the game and missions have changed since then, its just kind of annoying that not everything in the trailer was in the final game (even if it was just that one scene)

I've seen this exact scene when switching to Michael.

The cars on the trailer is a mission, the jets intercepting the supercargo is a mission, a lot of them are free-roam things that just sort of happen. The only screens I've seen that "didn't happen" are bits from the first trailer.

Thanks, i totally forgot about that mission (i paused it on that vid and other than the clothes, the guns and trevors vehice it looks identicle, even michaels car is in the same position), but then again i was thinking it was a hunting mission not a

Rescue mission

, like all protags hunting for sport or something, working as a team to hunt a rare animal or something. Still doesn't explain the gun not found in game though lol (i still think it could be dlc thats coming soon).

Its the last mission of car theft. the cars you steal are on the truck, loads of police following you, franklin climbs out of the truck, gets into the vintage aston martin and uses the special weapons to get rid of the police

Picture 3 could probably happen, hang out with both other characters at same time, fly to top of maze bank,

To all of you complaining about screenshot and ingame mission takes place in different area: R* HAD to edit the script to make screenshots so that the map won't be revealed too much. Think about it, if you could see the desert from the sky or the countryside via cinematic camera, it'd be too much spoiler.

I chose ending C, approached Stretch and they all shot at me, I killed them all? Nothing like this remotely happened.

It may just be a beta version of Franklin running from the cops, just for cinematic effects, considering the fact that the first trailer was released in November of 2011, so they must have done some edits on all three characters during the time between the release of the first trailer and the second trailer.

Except that Franklin is in the 1st trailer already and he's just fatter and has a lighter skin tone.

It's just a normal NPC running from the cops. That NPC character model is still in the final game, and we know that police chases with the NPCs can happen, it's not a mystery.

ACTUALLY you can get protagonists together in free roam... Theres an achievement related to it. and All those did happen. Except idk how franklin got a black teeshirt under that jacket... I only have white

Ending C, right at the end

, which is weird as other than their positions and speech, everything is different, its a completely different mission, like 50% of the game's story apart, it makes you wonder why they rearranged the cut scene like that,

in the trailer they are on the building during the 3rd heist after raiding the armored vehicle, wearing the boiler suits. But in the final game they are right at the end of the story during the last cut scene after pushing Devin off the cliff.

one can only assume they did it so they don't give away too much of final missions etc..

I don't think things in the game were changed. For the trailer they kind of mixed and matched scenes and audio to prevent spoilers.

No but seriously, I don't know why you're complaining. They changed little bits for the trailers/screenshots? So what!? Films and television shows do it too, quit your complaining please. This game is amazing.
